Capital!

In November, it was already cold.

At first, the snowflakes were light and soothing, quietly falling from the distant sky, and then a biting cold wind blew to make the wind and snow manic. The northern country of wind and snow is full of snow.

On this day, the wind and snow stopped for a while, and the bright sun shone on the silver snow, and the scenery was extremely moving. However, the bright sunshine under the light of the snow did not seem so lively.

The eunuchs and maids in the palace began to be busy clearing the snow early in the morning.

But in Kunning Palace, it was spring.

The emperor of the Ming Dynasty has finally come of age. Last night, Zhu Youxiao ran to Kunning Palace for a night, and then finally stopped being a junior brother.

The next morning, Zhu Youxiao hugged the beauty in his arms, and fell asleep beautifully. The morning exercise every morning is also wasted.

The hibiscus tent warms the spring night, and the king does not come to the early dynasty from then on.

Zhu Youxiao really wanted not to go to the early dynasty, but unfortunately it didn't take long for him to be kicked out by Zhang Yan.

"It doesn't matter to you, Queen! It's better that I won't go to the court today, and I'll accompany you here. Zhu Youxiao smiled and took Zhang Yan into his arms.

Zhang Yan glanced at Zhu Youxiao, who tossed until midnight yesterday, and now he still has a faint pain. Then he pushed Zhu Youxiao up and said seriously: "State affairs are important, the emperor should go to the court quickly, so as not to make the ministers wait for a long time." ”

"It's okay if you don't go to court today." Zhu Youxiao said indifferently. Zhang Yan said: "Your Majesty didn't say that now the Ming Dynasty is in turmoil, and the situation is so erosive, how can you relax by half a point." ”

Zhu Youxiao was reluctant, and Zhang Yan was a little angry and said, "If the emperor doesn't go to the early dynasty." I don't know what the ministers say about concubines! ”

"Alright! All right! I went to the court. Zhu Youxiao reluctantly climbed up. After a bit of freshening. Tell the palace maid to take care of the queen, and then go to the court.

Today did make the courtiers wait for a long time, but the charcoal fire in the court was very warm, and they didn't feel cold.

Now the frequency of Zhu Youxiao's court is higher, from the previous seven days to three days to three days. Once every three days, such a frequency is not too diligent. But in reality, all the government affairs are taken care of. The cabinet and the harem can't handle it, so Zhu Youxiao needs to deal with it personally.

After some prostration. Zhu Youxiao inquired about the progress of some government affairs today. The courtiers also reported some things for discussion, and the atmosphere above the court was much better at this time, since the Donglin Party was suppressed, the party struggle above the court has calmed down a lot, and there are more officials who are willing to do things with peace of mind than before.

"Your Majesty, the Ministry of Household has given a vacancy in the matter, and the minister thinks that Jiang Dejing, the leader of the Renxu Branch, has a lot of financial management, but he can do it." Wang Shaohui, the secretary of the ministry, put forward this appointment plan above the court, "In addition, there is a vacancy in the position of the servant of the ministry, and the minister thinks that Huang Zhoudao, the champion of the Renxu Branch, is an upright person." He has the law of governing officials and can hold this position. ”

Clever people naturally hear it. This is what the emperor meant, although Wang Shaohui is a secretary of the ministry, but who doesn't know that this guy is now only the emperor's head, and he doesn't think about anything else at all.

But there are also those who are not smart and jump out against it.

"The minister thinks that Huang Zhoudao and Jiang Dejing may not have enough qualifications, how can there be such an appointment." An official jumped out to oppose it directly, and Zhu Youxiao glanced at it, it was an imperial history that could not be named.

Doesn't this guy know the truth of a son of heaven and a courtier? Huang Zhoudao and Jiang Dejing are talents personally selected by Zhu Youxiao, so they naturally have to be vigorously cultivated. Zhu Youxiao has thought about the training route, first let Jiang Dejing enter the household department, and after working for a period of time to familiarize himself with the workflow and work content of the household department, he will be promoted to the household department Shangshu and directly help him manage the money bag.

Huang Zhoudao first entered the Ministry of Officials, and after getting familiar with the Ministry of Officials, let him preside over the evaluation of officials.

The most important thing is that Huang Zhoudao and Jiang Dejing are only in their thirties, as long as they are trained, they can work for him for decades!

"What is underqualifications? The so-called seniority is a bad habit of officialdom. Today, Zi Shengming should select talents in an eclectic manner, so that he will not be mediocre and bury talents. ”

"Yes, now above the court, there are no ordinary people in the corpse vegetarian table. And the talents of the imperial court are gradually declining. At this time, it is a holy move to be a meritocracy. ”

There is no need for Zhu Youxiao to jump out, naturally a group of horses will appear to solve the trouble for Zhu Youxiao.

Zhu Youxiao was naturally willing to be a wise monarch, so he pushed the boat down the river and said: "Since all Aiqing have recommended these two people, then do so!" ”

"Your Majesty." The ministers bowed down and chanted.

At this time, the power of the Han Emperor Party was getting bigger and bigger, and many officials in the court and China joined the Han Huang Party. Although there are still many Donglin parties in the DPRK and China, these Donglin parties are all officials who have no authority, and although they have initially formed together and passed a state of disintegration, their influence has been limited.

In particular, after the embezzlement of the bigwigs of the Donglin Party was continuously serialized and exposed by the "Daming Daily", the reputation of the Donglin Party became more and more stinky, so that many officials now even disdain to be with Donglin.

Above the court, there is no force that can balance Zhu Youxiao's imperial power, and the appointment of Huang Zhoudao and Jiang Dejing is just a formality.

Huang Zhoudao and Jiang Dejing are the second step in Zhu Youxiao's control of the Sixth Ministry, that is, to replace the Sixth Ministries with officials who are satisfactory to him, officials who can do practical things, rather than officials who eat and wait for death.

When he replaces all six ministries with officials who are dedicated to doing things, then the administrative system of the Ming Dynasty will be completely renewed.

"If there's nothing to do, let's retreat!" Zhu Youxiao saw that it was almost noon, so he got up and said.

"Retreat!"

With the noise of the eunuch, Zhu Youxiao shook his sleeves and walked away with his head held high. A group of courtiers below knelt on the ground to send them off.

Zhu Youxiao returned to the harem, and when the palace maids saw Zhu Youxiao on the way, many of them covered their mouths and laughed after walking over.

"I heard that the emperor stayed overnight in Kunning Palace last night!" A palace maid looked at the emperor's back and smiled at several palace maids around her.

"Is there any emperor who doesn't spend the night in Kunning Palace?" A little palace maid said in a daze, and immediately reacted, "Ah! You mean the emperor ...... him?"

A group of palace maids immediately burst into laughter.

"In the past, the emperor was still underage, just a little man, but now he is a real adult, and he will be a real man in the future."

"Maybe it won't be long before the queen mother will be able to give birth to a big fat boy."

The news that the emperor spent the night in Kunning Palace last night spread throughout the Forbidden City early this morning, and it suddenly became a rare 'big event' in the palace recently.

After going to the early court, Zhu Youxiao went straight to Kunning Palace.

"Your Majesty, is lunch in Kunning Palace?" Yang Guang asked.

"Hmmm! Let's be in Kunning Palace! Zhu Youxiao naturally wanted to go over to accompany the queen, Yang Guang asked: "Your Majesty, are we going to leave the palace in the afternoon?" ”

"Of course, the machine factory has built a big pendulum clock, so I naturally want to go and see it." Zhu Youxiao said that the big pendulum clock was the dominant product of Westerners in these years, and it was quite popular in Daming, and now Daming himself can make it. (To be continued......)
